Before CHAMBERS, HAMLEY and KILKENNY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

7

The award of the district court of attorney fees from the proceeds of sale of the Vessel Sonya is affirmed. We find it was not clearly erroneous.

8

The likelihood of another factual situation occurring just like the one here is so remote that it is not thought a discussion of the merits of the "informal foreclosure" used here would have any precedential value.
